Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions from Stanford-le-Hope and Thurrock business owners.

Do I need a CIS accountant if I work on London Gateway port construction projects?+
Yes, absolutely. If you're a subcontractor working on London Gateway, DP World infrastructure, or any construction project in the Stanford-le-Hope and Thurrock area, CIS rules apply. Your contractor must deduct tax at source (20% if registered, 30% if not), and you need to file CIS monthly returns or self assessments to reclaim overpaid tax. LOYALS specialises in exactly this โ€” we handle the paperwork so you focus on the job.
How can LOYALS help my trade business based in Stanford-le-Hope?+
We provide a full accounting service tailored to trades โ€” electricians, plumbers, builders, groundworkers โ€” common in the Stanford-le-Hope, Corringham and Fobbing areas. This includes CIS returns, self assessment, payroll for any staff or subbies, VAT registration and returns, and year-end accounts. We're available 7 days a week and won't tie you up in jargon.
Is LOYALS familiar with the Thurrock business environment?+
Yes. We work with businesses across Thurrock including Grays, Tilbury, Stanford-le-Hope and Corringham. The area has a unique mix of port-adjacent construction, logistics, and local trades โ€” and we understand the specific accounting needs that come with working in that environment, from CIS on large infrastructure projects to sole trader returns for local craftsmen.
What does CIS tax registration mean for me as a subcontractor near London Gateway?+
CIS registration means your contractor deducts 20% tax from your payments rather than 30%. Being CIS registered also means you can claim back tax overpaid via your self assessment or CIS refund claim. For subcontractors active on major Thurrock projects โ€” road improvements on the A13, port infrastructure at London Gateway, or residential developments around Stanford-le-Hope โ€” this can mean significant cash returned to you each tax year.
How much does LOYALS charge for CIS and self assessment services?+
Our packages start from ยฃ149 per month and include bookkeeping, CIS returns, and self assessment. We offer transparent, flat-fee pricing โ€” no surprise bills, no hourly charges. For sole traders in Stanford-le-Hope just needing an annual self assessment, we also offer one-off packages. Book a free call and we'll quote you clearly within minutes.
Can LOYALS help me set up a limited company for my contracting work in Thurrock?+
Yes โ€” company formation is one of our core services. Many contractors working around Corringham, Stanford-le-Hope and the wider Thurrock area find incorporating saves them tax and gives their business a more professional profile. We handle the Companies House registration, set up your PAYE and VAT schemes, and advise on the most tax-efficient way to draw income.
Do you offer weekend appointments for Stanford-le-Hope clients?+
We do. Our team is available 7 days a week, 8am to 8pm. We know tradespeople are on site Monday to Friday and often can't take calls during working hours. So we're happy to speak on Saturday or Sunday, or in the early morning and evenings. A quick call is all it takes to get started.
What's the difference between being self-employed and having a limited company as a builder in Stanford-le-Hope?+
As a sole trader, all profits are taxed as income โ€” straightforward but often less tax-efficient at higher earnings. A limited company lets you pay yourself a mix of salary and dividends, which can reduce your overall tax bill significantly if your profits exceed around ยฃ30,000 per year. However, there's more admin involved. We'll analyse your situation and tell you which structure saves you the most money in your specific circumstances.
